Miley Cyrus Sets Viewing Record With Nude Wrecking Ball Video

She may keep upping the ante in ways to shock the audience, but Miley Cyrus sure does know how to get attention.

The 20-year-old singer premiered the new video for her ballad Wrecking Ball on Monday, in which she's featured writhing naked on top of a metal ball while licking it's chain, as well as giving oral pleasure to a sledgehammer.

But people wanted to see what the fuss was all about because it just shattered the Vevo record for the most played video in a single day after it received staggering 12.3 million views in just 24 hours.

Miley knocked off former champ One Direction, who previously held the record with their 10.9 million views for Best Song Ever.
